About this study

Official title: The Correlation Between Coracoid Tunnel Dilatation and Loss of Reduction After Arthroscopic Acromioclavicular Fixation Using Tightrope System, A CT Based Study

studying coracoid tunnel widening after arthroscopic fixation of acute acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocation using TightRope system and its correlation with loss of reduction and the functional scores.

Read the detailed description

Abstract Purpose: To detect coracoid tunnel widening after arthroscopic fixation of acute acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocation using TightRope system and its correlation with loss of reduction and the functional scores.

Methods: From July 2016 to Dec 2018, a prospective study was performed at our hospital. Twenty-three patients with acute grade III-V ACJ dislocation were included in the study. Arthroscopic double tight-rope repair of the ACJ was performed. Coracoid tunnel widening was measured by computed tomography (CT) and coraco-clavicular distance was measured on the x-ray immediately post-operative and at 12 months. Constant Shoulder Score, Oxford Shoulder Score, Nottingham Clavicle Score and Visual analogue scale were used as outcome measures at 12 months.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Coracoid tunnel diameter difference between immediate postoperative and final follow up

    Radiological outcome using CT scans

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Coraco-clavicular distance immediate postoperative and at final follow up

    Radiological outcome using X-rays

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Constant-Murley shoulder score. Ranges from 0 representing worst outcome to 100 representing best outcome

    Clinical score using a questionnaire

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Disability of arm shoulder and Hand score ( DASH score) highest is 100 which represents worst outcome while lowest is 0 representing best possible outcome

    Clinical score using a questionnaire

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Oxford Shoulder score, a questionnaire of 12 questions each scores from 1 to 5. 1 being the fewest symptoms, 5 being the worst. The total score is 60 marks, the higher the score the worse the outcomes

    Clinical score using a questionnaire

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing arthroscopic fixation of Acute acromioclavicular joint injury using tight rope and Tight rope in people with Orthopedic Disorder and Orthopedic Devices Associated With Misadventures, run by Cairo University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Coracoid tunnel diameter difference between immediate postoperative and final follow up (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Aug 2022.
